CoreAge Rx edges out Welling Health on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 37 (A vs C). Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.
Welling Health is still a genuine option — as of October 2026, Welling Health no longer sells GLP-1 treatment. Its site is now a membership built around lab work, at $36 a month billed once a year, and the prescription track that lists semaglutide and tirzepatide says it is not yet open. Until then it sold compounded semaglutide at $190 a month and tirzepatide at $275, with a discount that grew the longer you kept a streak going. If you are shopping now, compare the providers still selling. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

What the price covers

So the sticker prices cover different things: the clinician consult, the medication and shipping at CoreAge Rx but not, or not stated, at Welling Health. Add the missing pieces before you compare totals.

CoreAge Rx
Editors' Rating 94/100 · Grade A
What we like
- Flat all-in price that doesn't step up after month one — the number you sign for is the number at the full dose
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a single account, so a molecule switch never resets the budget
- Licensed in all 50 states — care survives a move, a deployment, or a summer at the grandparents'
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a bare teaser tier elsewhere can look cheaper for exactly one month
- Compounded only; no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound if that is what you and your clinician want
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated women's or maternal-health clinic
Welling Health
Editors' Rating 37/100 · Grade C
What we like
- While it sold GLP-1 treatment, semaglutide and tirzepatide cost the same at every dose, with the full discount ladder published
- Its new prescription track promises medication at direct cost with no markup, if and when it opens
- No FDA warning letter against the operator or the platform
The caveats
- As of October 2026 it no longer sells GLP-1 treatment — the prescription track that lists semaglutide and tirzepatide says it is not yet open
- The site is now a lab-testing membership at $36 a month, billed once a year at $432, and any future medication would be paid on top of that
- The old streak-discount pricing is gone from the site, so there is nothing public to check refill terms against
